Functional principle
Magnetic field sensors are activated by magnetic fields and are used, in particular, for the detection of the piston position in pneumatic cylinders. As magnetic fields can permeate non-magnetizable metals, they detect a permanent magnet attached to the piston through the aluminium cylinder wall.

Mounting instructions
Mounting instructions/Description
Thanks to the mounting lip, the sensor can be inserted into the groove from above with one hand. Mount the sensors as follows using the patented wing screw: The wing screw and the female thread feature a left- hand thread. Two small plastic lips keep the screw in position, ready-to-install. Turn the screw clockwise. The screw moves out of the thread and hits the upper grooves with the wings. The sensor is thus pressed down and locked in position. A few degrees up to approximately 1.5 turns of the screw with a slotted screwdriver (blade width 0.5 mm) or a 1.5 mm Allen key are sufficient to ensure vibration-proof fastening, depending on the shape of the slot. A tightening torque of 0.4 Nm is sufficient for safe mounting without damaging the cylinder. The sensor can now withstand an axial and radial tensile load of F=100N applied on the cable. A cable clip is included in the scope of delivery. It enables smooth cable routing in the groove and ensures that the cable is fastened as securely as possible. The corresponding accessories for mounting on other cylindrical housings must be ordered separately.
